Well, well... So much for the media being "Left-Wing"

As the economy and his poll numbers improved in March, so did the favorability of his media coverage, but the president still has yet to see more positive coverage than negative in 2012.

Rosenstiel dismissed the notion that the data could offer insight into the stereotype of a politically liberal media.

“A lot of what you see in tone reflects external events,” he said. “It doesn’t just reflect subliminal attitudes.”


So, the press coverage is right in line with approval numbers and external events. Other polls show that most want Obamacare repealed, for instance, and if media reports on public opinion, it would be considered negative toward Obama. Looks like his policies just aren't popular and maybe some things are just too difficult to spin, so reporting the truth is all that's left. Of course, the liberal media doesn't spend time on each issue surrounding Obama, as with the Solyndra scandal, yet they carry on for days when it's a Republican.
 
Corporate media

remember the media compliance with the march to war in Iraq
 
Thats like saying........

"The 0-12 NFL team gets less highlights in the news than the 10-2 team."

Well no shit. Obama is earning every damn second of negative press he is getting.

And at the end of the day.....those media folks are working people. With a good salary. So are their owners. And sponsors.

They love socialism....til it hits home. The Russians coulda told us that.
 
What negative press?....Where?

Fox. They were mean to the POTUS. They actually had the nerve to question the factual accuracy of a speech. Fucking outrageous.

Fox has already been called every name in the book by the left, so they've nothing to lose by calling him up on bullshit. Others aren't so brave and fear being left out of the loop. Remember the reporter who had the nerve to report on protesters at an Obama speech? She was banned from the WH pool and her employer was told not to publish her report and video footage of the protesters.
 
All I know is that I hear people on this board talking about the "Liberal Media", which is supposedly "in the bag" for Obama, all the time...

And this study would seem to indicate that that is simply not the case.

Bullshit.

If they HAVE to offer criticism, they do so in some half-assed watered down wimpy way.

The fact that they offer ANY criticism is merely a reflection of just how massively President Obama has stunk up the joint.
